OK, so we know the name of our next president. That's awesome. And we know a few other names, too: Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, David Axelrod, and Austan Goolsbee. Depending on how much you follow the ancillary figures of a presidential campaign, you may know a few others, too.

But in case you don't, one website does a good job of introducing you to the people who will define Barack Obama's first term in the Oval Office.

Behind the Candidates began as a way to get out the vote by educating readers on whom would comprise the respective administrations of Obama and McCain. Since only half of that information is relevant now, you just saved yourself a lot of time -- and no doubt some confusion, too, since many of the advisers are bound to share some striking similarities with their red or blue counterparts.

The site's relevance may not be so urgent now, but it's still chock-full of useful information on the lesser-known folks like Sam Nunn, Dora Hughes, and General Tony McPeak.
